The neighborhoods of Central and South Berkeley are full of college town ambiance and sensibilities. It is here that all the trappings of a college town can be found in cafés and bookstores, residential streets, and student housing. In Central and South Berkeley, shingled bungalows and stately Victorians share real estate with inexpensive apartments and university residential halls.

Some of the most coveted real estate in the East Bay can be found to the north of the university, in the Berkeley Hills. Unique single-family homes, designed by some of the most influential 20th century architects in the Bay Area, line the winding, tree-lined streets of the Berkeley Hills. Contemporary and mid-century modern homes designed by the likes of Richard C. Peters, Joseph Esherick, and Harwell Hamilton Harris mingle with earlier homes by John Hudson and Bernard Maybeck to give this area an exclusive, very East Bay character.
